For decades, in vitro expansion of transplantable hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) has been an elusive goal. Here, we demonstrate that multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPCs), isolated from green fluorescent protein (GFP)-transgenic mice and expanded in vitro for >40–80 population doublings, are capable of multilineage hematopoietic engraftment of immunodeficient mice. Among MAPC-derived GFP+CD45.2+ cells in the bone marrow of engrafted mice, HSCs were present that could radioprotect and reconstitute multilineage hematopoiesis in secondary and tertiary recipients, as well as myeloid and lymphoid hematopoietic progenitor subsets and functional GFP+ MAPC-derived lymphocytes that were functional. Although hematopoietic contribution by MAPCs was comparable to control KTLS HSCs, approximately 103-fold more MAPCs were required for efficient engraftment. Because GFP+ host-derived CD45.1+ cells were not observed, fusion is not likely to account for the generation of HSCs by MAPCs.

Abstract Cryopreservation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) is crucial for cord blood (CB) banking and transplantation. We evaluated recovery of functional HPC cryopreserved as mononuclear or unseparated cells for up to 23.5 years compared with prefreeze values of the same CB units. Highly efficient recovery (80%-100%) was apparent for granulocyte-macrophage and multipotential hematopoietic progenitors, although some collections had reproducible low recovery. Proliferative potential, response to multiple cytokines, and replating of HPC colonies was extensive. CD34+ cells isolated from CB cryopreserved for up to 21 years had long-term (≥ 6 month) engrafting capability in primary and secondary immunodeficient mice reflecting recovery of long-term repopulating, self-renewing HSCs. We recovered functionally responsive CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes, generated induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells with differentiation representing all 3 germ cell lineages in vitro and in vivo, and detected high proliferative endothelial colony forming cells, results of relevance to CB biology and banking.

Abstract We have developed a novel cotransplantation system in which gene- transduced human CD34+ progenitor cells are transplanted into immunodeficient (bnx) mice together with primary human bone marrow (BM) stromal cells engineered to produce human interleukin-3 (IL-3). The IL- 3-secreting stroma produced sustained circulating levels of human IL-3 for at least 4 months in the mice. The IL-3-secreting stroma, but not control stroma, supported human hematopoiesis from the cotransplanted human BM CD34+ progenitors for up to 9 months, such that an average of 6% of the hematopoietic cells removed from the mice were of human origin (human CD45+). Human multilineage progenitors were readily detected as colony-forming units from the mouse marrow over this time period. Retroviral-mediated transfer of the neomycin phosphotransferase gene or a human glucocerebrosidase cDNA into the human CD34+ progenitor cells was performed in vitro before cotransplantation. Human multilineage progenitors were recovered from the marrow of the mice 4 to 9 months later and were shown to contain the transduced genes. Mature human blood cells marked by vector DNA circulated in the murine peripheral blood throughout this time period. This xenograft system will be useful in the study of gene transduction of human hematopoietic stem cells, by tracing the development of individually marked BM stem cells into mature blood cells of different lineages.

Definitive Hematopoiesis

Abstract Runx1 is required for the emergence of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from hemogenic endothelium during embryogenesis. However, its role in the generation and maintenance of HSCs during adult hematopoiesis remains uncertain. Here, we present analysis of a zebrafish mutant line carrying a truncation mutation, W84X, in runx1. The runx1W84X/W84X embryos showed blockage in the initiation of definitive hematopoiesis, but some embryos were able to recover from a larval “bloodless” phase and develop to fertile adults with multilineage hematopoiesis. Using cd41–green fluorescent protein transgenic zebrafish and lineage tracing, we demonstrated that the runx1W84X/W84X embryos developed cd41+ HSCs in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros region, which later migrated to the kidney, the site of adult hematopoiesis. Overall, our data suggest that in zebrafish adult HSCs can be formed without an intact runx1.

Abstract Background Hematopoietic stem cells(HSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) can participate in wound healing. However, very few studies had shown HSCs and MSCs could arrive to the wound and differentiate into tissues. In this study, we intend to investigate the role of bone marrow HSCs and MSCs in wound healing. Methods We first removed the bone marrow of mice by irradiation. Furthermore, we injected different colours of fluorescent HSCs and MSCs into the tail vein of irradiated mice to reconstruct bone marrow function. We prepared wound models on the back of these mice. In vivo imaging and immunohistochemical staining were used to track the expression of fluorescent protein. Results HSCs and MSCs have been isolated and cultured. HSCs expressed expressed Sca1, not lineage, CD34 or CD48. MSCs expressed expressed CD29 and CD44,not CD34 or CD45. HSCs labeled with green fluorescent protein reached the wound and co-expressed with desmin and α-SMA. MSCs didn’t stay on the wound. Conclusions The results show HSCs in the bone marrow of mice can directly participate in wound healing and differentiate into pericytes and myofibroblasts.

We previously reported that long-lasting in vitro hematopoiesis could be achieved using the cells differentiated from primate embryonic stem (ES) cells. Thus, we speculated that hematopoietic stem cells differentiated from ES cells could sustain long-lasting in vitro hematopoiesis. To test this hypothesis, we investigated whether human hematopoietic stem cells could similarly sustain long-lasting in vitro hematopoiesis in the same culture system. Although the results varied between experiments, presumably due to differences in the quality of each hematopoietic stem cell sample, long-lasting in vitro hematopoiesis was observed to last up to nine months. Furthermore, an in vivo analysis in which cultured cells were transplanted into immunodeficient mice indicated that even after several months of culture, hematopoietic stem cells were still present in the cultured cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to show that human hematopoietic stem cells can survive in vitro for several months.

Inefficient retroviral-mediated gene transfer to human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and insufficient gene expression in progeny cells derived from transduced HSC are two major problems associated with HSC-based gene therapy. In this study we evaluated the ability of a murine stem cell virus (MSCV)-based retroviral vector carrying the low-affinity human nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) gene as reporter to maintain gene expression in transduced human hematopoietic cells. CD34+ cells lacking lineage differentiation markers (CD34+Lin−) isolated from human bone marrow and mobilized peripheral blood were transduced using an optimized clinically applicable protocol. Under the conditions used, greater than 75% of the CD34+ cell population retained the Lin− phenotype after 4 days in culture and at least 30% of these expressed a high level of NGFR (NGFR+) as assessed by fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis. When these CD34+Lin−NGFR+ cells sorted 2 days posttransduction were assayed in vitro in clonogenic and long-term stromal cultures, sustained reporter expression was observed in differentiated erythroid and myeloid cells derived from transduced progenitors, and in differentiated B-lineage cells after 6 weeks. Moreover, when these transduced CD34+Lin−NGFR+ cells were used to repopulate human bone grafts implanted in severe combined immunodeficient mice, MSCV-directed NGFR expression could be detected on 37% ± 6% (n = 5) of the donor-type human cells recovered 9 weeks postinjection. These findings suggest potential utility of the MSCV retroviral vector in the development of effective therapies involving gene-modified HSC.

Hepatic stellate cells are believed to play a key role in the development of liver fibrosis. Several studies have reported that bone marrow cells can give rise to hepatic stellate cells. We hypothesized that hepatic stellate cells are derived from hematopoietic stem cells. To test this hypothesis, we generated chimeric mice by transplantation of clonal populations of cells derived from single enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)–marked Lin−Sca-1+c-kit+CD34− cells and examined the histology of liver tissues obtained from the chimeric mice with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)–induced injury. After 12 weeks of CCl4 treatment, we detected EGFP+ cells in the liver, and some cells contained intracytoplasmic lipid droplets. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated that 50% to 60% of the EGFP+ cells were negative for CD45 and positive for vimentin, glial fibrillary acidic protein, ADAMTS13, and α-smooth muscle actin. Moreover, EGFP+ cells isolated from the liver synthesized collagen I in culture. These phenotypes were consistent with those of hepatic stellate cells. The hematopoietic stem cell–derived hepatic stellate cells seen in male-to-male transplants revealed only one Y chromosome. Our findings suggest that hematopoietic stem cells contribute to the generation of hepatic stellate cells after liver injury and that the process does not involve cell fusion.
